ViewRanger App Maps Outdoor Recreation in Denmark

Posted on 17/04/2013

Exploring Denmark by cycle, on foot, and on water is easier following the release of detailed topographic mapping and interactive trail guides within the ViewRanger Outdoors GPS app.

We've added topographic maps from the Danish Geodata Agency (Geodatastyrelsen) and more than 200 free-to-download guided walking and cycling trails across Denmark.

Danish topographic mapping at both 1:50,000 and 1:25,000 scales can be easily added via low-cost in-app purchase. Detailed topographic mapping for Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany, and many other countries can also be added.

More than 200 walking and cycling trail guides from across Denmark are immediately available to download, for free, including the Nationale Cykelruter (National Cycling Routes) and recreational trails from "Scandinavian Trails" a collaboration between more than 50 municipalities and regions in Denmark, Sweden and Norway.

Across Europe and North America, ViewRanger offers thousands of trail guides from guidebook publishers, tourism organizations, walking festivals, accommodation providers, and more. Trail guides include navigable waypoints for the route plus description of the trail, and often photos, weblinks, accommodation tips, and other useful information.

Maps from Danish Geodata Agency (Geodatastyrelsen) downloaded to the ViewRanger app can also be viewed through the app’s companion website “MyViewranger.com”. The website allows route plotting, recorded GPS track analysis and map printing from a larger desktop screen.
